Electrical Tech / So my power windows have stopped working...
I checked ALL the fuses earlier this afternoon and they all looked good.

I just came back inside. I took apart the center console and unscrewed the housing for the power window switches and wiggled the wires hoping I'd get lucky.

And I did get lucky.

The driver's side window will function now. The passenger side window still won't function but at least it is stuck closed.

I took a quick look at the wiring up around the fuse box. They look remarkably good for being a 27 year old car. Everything looks nice & clean and feels tight. Maybe it is the switch. Is there an easy way to get around that so I can at least get my window back up?

When I hit the lights, they work just fine. But my power locks have also stopped working.

When I try to operate the power windows... nothing happens. Absolutely nothing. No whirring, clicking, or whining. No odd noises, well, no noises at all, of any sort. Just, nothing.

Lounge / Sorry I've been gone for a while.
That wicked storm that hit us at the end of june left us without electricity for 8 days in a heat wave.

During this, my grandmother became ill and died a couple weeks later (she lived with my folks who are about 200 yards up the road from us).

I just haven't felt like doing much.

The window on the passenger side went out a few days back and now the driver's side window is not functioning, and worse... it's all the way down.

Any ideas? I'm hoping it's just a fuse but I don't know which fuse(s) it might be.

If it's one thing I don't like about these cars, it's the power doodads. For this reason.

Lounge / wedding
See I'd know this was a trick because it's never a younger chick flirting with me. Always older. Usually by a good ten years.

I should have known it was inevitable; last year I finally took a Cougar home.

Yeah that's why I've been staying away lately. I hate drama.

Lounge / ford's naming system
I've felt for a long time that they're running out of ideas for car names.

Even Chevy, who seemed to prefer spanish names for their cars for a long time has gotten into the weird names too.
